CARING CORRUPTED: THE KILLING NURSES OF THE THIRTIES from Nazi Germany enlightened my narrative of the COVID death march. This video, responding to my headlined OP-ED COVID CARNAGE, dated October 26, 2025,  stirred deep thought about human nature’s desire to seek the most gain at the cost of the least amount of pain.

I’m not sure how many readers remember Heavy Metal (the cartoon art mag, not the music). They released an eponymously named movie in 1981, which I recall liking. In one scene, someone in charge of something tells the hero, Den, that he “must steal the Loc-Nar from the Queen in order to save Katherine.” I ... Read more

Patriots, the storm has broken.  For nine years, the Deep State cabal led by Barack Obama have slithered in the shadows, peddling their Russia hoax like a venomous serpent to poison the well of American democracy.  But now director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard has hurled the thunderbolt of truth, declassifying ironclad documents that lay bare the ...

Today, on the morning update, we’ve got more SNAP fraud news you can share out there in the trenches of social media, including how Dems could have easily funded SNAP separately from the CR, but like paying our military, they just don’t want to.

[re: Patrick Hynes (Sununu can deliver GOP seat in the Senate, Union Leader, October 25)] John E. Sununu is the epitome of the Washington elite.

Everyone except the Democrats is frustrated by the Senate impasse that is keeping our government shut down. This situation is not one where negotiation will lead to a resolution.

New York’s likely election of Zohran Mamdani to the mayor’s office offers a lesson —and not just to New Yorkers. The rise of Marxist, totalitarian socialists into positions of power has a similar effect across the world and throughout time. It is the template of modern civilization.

After receiving the full ESSER I, II, and III expenditure files, I’ve completed a detailed and source-cited analysis of Nashua’s COVID-era funding, current fiscal management, and the broader demographic trends that have been repeatedly ignored. What emerges is a pattern of short-term financial decisions, politicized narratives, and resistance to data-driven planning that has left taxpayers ... Read more

I’m sure it’s common knowledge that the reason for smaller grocery stores(Sully’s, IGA, Harvester, Jeannotte’s, etc.) being more expensive than their big box competition is that they are not going to sell 100 of (insert everyday item here) each day to make that discount price sustainable.  Living in the exurbs, my early memories include my ...

The idea that Democrats care about anything or anyone but themselves, and that does not include regular, everyday, registered Democrats, is absurd. Nothing they do or care about ends up improving their lives, care, or safety—quite the opposite.

I have found this recent government shutdown to be the most frustrating period in all my years of following politics.
